QUOTE: Mark Prigg The Daily Mail, UK Wed, 10 Apr 2013 17:15 CDT Researchers say the bat is an entirely new genus Black and white fur make it look uncannily like a panda Researchers have hailed a bat that looks uncannily like a panda bear as 'the find of a lifetime'. The bat, discovered in South Sudan, is so rare researchers believe it is an entirely new genus. 'My attention was immediately drawn to the bat's strikingly beautiful and distinct pattern of spots and stripes,' said Bucknell Associate Professor of Biology DeeAnn Reeder, who made the discovery. 'It was clearly a very extraordinary animal, one that I had never seen before - I knew the second I saw it that it was the find of a lifetime.' 
The newly discovered genus Niumbaha superba, dubbed the 'panda bat' and discovered in South Sudan Reeder spotted the animal in Bangangai Game Reserve. After returning to the United States, Reeder determined the bat was the same as one originally captured in nearby Democratic Republic of the Congo in 1939 and named Glauconycteris superba, but she and colleagues did not believe that it fit with other bats in the genus Glauconycteris. After careful analysis, it is clear that it doesn't belong in the genus that it's in right now,' Reeder said. 'Its cranial characters, its wing characters, its size, the ears - literally everything you look at doesn't fit. 'It's so unique that we need to create a new genus.' In the paper, 'A new genus for a rare African vespertilionid bat: insights from South Sudan' just published by the journal ZooKeys, Reeder, along with co-authors from the Smithsonian Institution and the Islamic University in Uganda, placed this bat into a new genus - Niumbaha. 'It was clearly a very extraordinary animal, one that I had never seen before - I knew the second I saw it that it was the find of a lifetime.' The word means 'rare' or 'unusual' in Zande, the language of the Azande people in Western Equatoria State, where the bat was captured. The bat is just the fifth specimen of its kind ever collected, and the first in South Sudan, which gained its independence in 2011. 'Our discovery of this new genus of bat is an indicator of how diverse the area is and how much work remains,' Reeder added. 'Understanding and conserving biodiversity is critical in many ways. 'Knowing what species are present in an area allows for better management. 'When species are lost, ecosystem-level changes ensue. 'I'm convinced this area is one in which we need to continue to work.' The team's research in South Sudan was made possible by a $100,000 grant that Reeder received from the Woodtiger Fund. The private research foundation recently awarded Reeder another $100,000 dollar grant to continue her research this May and to support FFI's conservation programs. 'To me, this discovery is significant because it highlights the biological importance of South Sudan and hints that this new nation has many natural wonders yet to be discovered,' said Matt Rice, Fauna & Flora International's South Sudan country director. 'South Sudan is a country with much to offer and much to protect,'

Not at all. They had 6 to eight weeks to plant charges and a total lack of any security in those buildings. This is the age of technology and who knows how they took those buildings down, but it sure wasn't an airplane or a fire.

http://www.wben.com/Jacobs--Wrong-Person-Told-To-Turn-In-Guns/16021389
Jacobs: Wrong Person Told To Turn In Guns Buffalo, NY (WBEN / release) - Erie County Clerk Chris Jacobs says State Police now admit they fingered the wrong person, when they recommended a pistol permit suspension. State Police had indicated a local gun permit holder used anti-anxiety medication, a situation that triggers an alert in the NY SAFE Act. The local gun owner was asked to turn in their guns at their local police department. But now, Jacobs says troopers say they passed along bad information, and they had fingered the wrong person. Jacobs says this error points out the flaws in the state's new gun control legislation. Here is the release from his office: Erie County, NY – Erie County Clerk Chris Jacobs said that late today he received a call from the New York State Police informing him that they had provided information on the wrong person when they notified his office of someone whose permit should be suspended because of the new mental health provisions in New York’s SAFE Act. "Previously we received correspondence from the State Police that a pistol permit holder in our County had a mental health condition that made them a potential harm to themselves or others, a provision in the NY SAFE Act that requires suspension of their pistol permit license," said Jacobs. At that time as required by law, Jacobs’ referred the item and all supporting documentation to the State Supreme Court Judge in charge of issuing pistol permits. Acting on the information provided by the State Police, the judge issued a suspension of the permit pending a hearing. "When the State Police called to tell us they made a mistake and had the wrong person...it became clear that the State did not do their job here, and now we all look foolish." Jacobs’ believes the central reason for this error is the inherent flaws in the mental health reporting provisions in the NY SAFE Act. "Until the mental health provisions are fixed, these mistakes will continue to happen," says Jacobs. Usual Government SNAFU! A gun in the hands of a free man frightens and angers the autocrat, not because he fears the power of the gun, but, rather, the spirit of the man who holds it. ANONYMOUS

QUOTE: QUOTE: QUOTE: QUOTE: i guess the 30 ton steel supports falling from 85 stories high (1300 feet) slamming into the side of building 7 had nothing to do with it either... That's right according to NIST. Building 7 collapsed only from the fire damage. They report that even if no debris had hit building 7, the fire would have caused the building to collapse. However, the debris is apparently what started the fire. (Apparently, and allegedly.) So, sorry. I just find that hard to believe. thats what they said... i'm not real sure why building 7 is so important to the CT'ers anyway, whether they did it intentionally or not, what does it matter? with the damage done to the complex as a whole, that building would have been torn down anyway... I'll explain it to you then. 1. Building 7 is important because it was not hit by a plane, which is the excuse/cause given for the collapse of the twin towers. 2. Building 7 was not hit by a plane, and it collapsed anyway, and they are claiming that it was not demolished on purpose so now they have to try to convince people that the fire caused the building to fall. (They are not very convincing) If it had been only the twin towers that fell, it would have been a whole lot easier to successfully sell the story that the reason for the buildings collapse was that they were hit by planes driven by terrorists. BUT building 7, also fell into its footprint in a very neat and professional manner that resembled a controlled demolition and it was NOT HIT BY A PLANE. So somebody had a lot of splainin' to do. And they got together all their writers and 'splainers that are on the government payroll and they took a while, but eventually they came up with some explanations that a few people bought lock stock and barrel, but by the time they did that, the conspiracy theorist had over run the Internet. Clearly the propaganda 'splainers need to be quicker on the draw for any future terrorists events they want to have. They are clearly out gunned by the conspiracy theorists. This is actually what happened! But you haven't heard it from me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 35 Reasons for Many Small Fission Nukes at the WTC 1) heat generation at ground zero for six months (china syndrome) 2) inability to quench ground zero heat with water 3) red hot/molten steel at ground zero 4) missing core columns from ground zero (vaporized during destruction) 5) spreading of sand at ground zero consistent with attempts to limit radiation 6) washing of steel recovered from pile consistent with radiation decontamination 7) extreme security for ground zero steel shipments consistent with limiting access to radioactive steel 8) extreme security at ground zero, limiting exposure, view of devastation 9) extreme pulverization of WTC concrete into very fine particles 10) disappearance of over one thousand human bodies from WTC debris 11) disappearance of furniture, phones, filing cabinets and computers from WTC debris 12) disappearance of elevator doors, office doors, office cubicle walls, toilets and sinks from WTC debris 13) several floor fragments fused together in “meteorite” object 14) bone fragments sprayed into Bankers Trust upper floor during destruction 15) multiple blast waves during destruction of tower 16) large fireballs during initiation of WTC1 destruction 17) small backpack-sized fission nukes exist 18) fission-nuke technology well-established 19) low efficiency of fission nukes ensures leftover radioactive fragments and China syndrome 20) EMP formation during tower destruction (exploding cars, partial burning) 21) Description of heat in WTC blast cloud 22) Extensive cover-up of ground zero air by EPA 23) High rate of cancers, including thyroid cancer typically associated with radiation exposure, in ground zero responders 24) Melted, hanging skin in WTC survivor Felipe David in absence of fire 25) Vaporized press and crumpled steel door in WTC basement reported by Pecoraro 26) Steel beam bent in U, without cracking, evidence of extreme high temps 27) Steel beam bent in U has layer of molten metal on surface 28) Extreme overall devastation of two massive towers and blasted out Ground Zero aftermath 29) Appearance of fantastical, nonsensical DEW theory by likely govt agents-- uses evidence of nukes (EMP, extreme pulverization of tower into dust) but denies nukes at all costs 30) Appearance of fantastical, nonsensical thermite (super nano-thermite) theory by likely govt agents-- uses evidence of nukes (molten steel, china syndrome) but denies nukes at all costs 31) Small iron microspheres found by Jones et al in WTC dust— evidence of steel vaporization by high temps of nukes 32) Pyroclastic debris cloud during WTC destruction 33) Upwards jutting debris trails reminiscent of debris trails formed during underground nuke test 34) Small bright flashes during destruction of both towers 35) Extremely compacted ground zero debris

QUOTE: Copyright law sucks!...It used to be that an author's copyright expired 50 years after his death, but in the UK, they extended it to 70. This means that Orwell's (Blair's) stuff won't be in the public domain until 2020. I wonder what little corporate bloodsuckers are profiting from his life's work until 2020?...I kinda doubt that his family is. I heard a rumour that Greece was holding the copyright on Plato's Republic and using it (along with the Parthenon, Acropolis & the rest of Greece) as security against an IMF loan that they defaulted on. Now that greece is belly up, I'm expecting to find some bargains on ebay. I can't afford the whole country of course, but I figure if nobody else is interested, I should be able to get Mt. Olympus for a song (the shipping costs are ridiculous though) to use as a conversational paperweight in the office. Failing that, I might try for the copyright on Plato's work...His "Republic" would make a great coffee table book... To increase the value of it, I think I'll have Amazon destroy all the ebook versions.

I do use my Kindle more than pages these days, but it's nice to know Animal Farm, 1984 and Atlas Shrugged can't be removed from my shelves so easily...not yet anyway.

This is the age of technology and who knows how they took those buildings down, but it sure wasn't an airplane or a fire. Actually yes, no cascading explosions no explosives period. None Tell me something hot shot........if there was NO explosives in Building 7, why didn't they test for em in the official story before coming to the conclusion there weren't any? What were they afraid of? If there was none, surely the test would have shown that right? The fact that they didn't says to me the cat was watching the hen house. For the same reason I mentioned. It was a scientific impossibility. For the exact things I stated in my post. Yet you also seem to think you know more than the scientist I mentioned. Please give your credentials so we can compare them to his. You sure put a lot of faith is these alleged scientists.
No kidding, you get the feeling that some of these people would jump off a bridge if a "scientist" said you could survive doing so. I mean.......screw the facts right? pot-kettle?... you should look up the definition of "fact" Not really, I know what the facts are, I could careless what the media may try to spin them as. It's you that needs to learn them, not me. so what are your facts? People like Jeannie and I have been TRYING to tell you the facts of the matter forever......if you weren't listening before, why should I expect you to listen now? I'm not gonna keep rehashing something just for you to ridicule it, no point in wasting the truth like that.

Tens of thousands at US immigration reform rallies Harath Andrade tells the BBC's Ben Wright: "If there was a system in place for immigration my dad wouldn't have to be facing this struggle right now" Continue reading the main story Related Stories Tens of thousands of demonstrators have rallied across the US in a mass call for citizenship for millions of undocumented immigrants. The co-ordinated protests were designed to press Congress to act as senators negotiate an immigration reform bill. In Washington DC cheering crowds gathered outside the Capitol, and more than 1,000 demonstrated in Atlanta. Lawmakers are expected soon to unveil a bill that would grant a path to legal status for undocumented immigrants. The push for immigration reform follows an election in which Hispanic voters overwhelmingly supported President Barack Obama and Democratic candidates. Most of the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the US are Hispanic, and members of the Republican Party have acknowledged they must support some kind of immigration deal if they hope to win more Hispanic votes, analysts say. 'Jobless Americans' On Wednesday, gatherings entitled Rally for Citizenship were held in New York, Washington DC, San Francisco, Atlanta and dozens of other places. The demonstrators included farm labourers, domestic workers, union leaders and immigration activists. "We won't win immigration reform just coming to Washington," said Ben Monterroso, of the Service Employees International Union. "We need to walk the streets all over the country." Organisers in Washington DC said about 400 coaches brought people into the US capital for the rally in favour of immigration reform. Democratic lawmakers, including New Jersey Democratic Senator Bob Menendez and Illinois Congressman Luis Gutierrez, spoke while Latino musicians Olga Tanon and La Santa Cecilia performed. In the halls of the US Senate, a bipartisan group of senators is close to a deal on legislation that would require tough border security measures to be in place before undocumented immigrants could gain legal status. It would also enable tens of thousands of legal immigrants to come to the US under a guest worker programme. Groups favouring stricter immigration laws say the reforms under consideration would exacerbate financial problems for state and local governments and would lead to higher levels of illegal immigration. Bill expected soon "There ought to be a rally for the 20 million Americans who can't find a full-time job," Roy Beck, president of Numbers USA, said in a statement on Wednesday. The bill is expected to be unveiled within days and it could proceed to a vote before the Memorial Day holiday weekend at the end of May. The US has not undertaken a major push to reform the immigration system since 2007, when a bipartisan bill failed in the Senate. In 2010, Congress debated but did not approve the Dream Act, which would have given legal status to some young immigrants who came to the US as children. In June, President Barack Obama unveiled a programme to allow young undocumented workers who immigrated as children to apply for two-year, renewable visas. He has expressed optimism that an immigration bill could be passed in the first half of 2013. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-22102656 are the STOOOPID or something? |
